If I were King, I'd just be treating the stuff the same as any other drug - I'd look for FDA approval before marketing and I'd have the stuff subject to FDA inspection and oversight. I'd do the same with tobacco.
In this world where we seem to be given only two options, legalization or full criminalization classifying it in the same manner as heroin, we're going to get pretty bad shit both ways. Unfortunately, I have a nephew who ended up with some very bad what the docs believe are cannabis induced seizures. He may have had them whether or not the stuff got legalized, but I'm still happier we got him treated and off the stuff rather than having him drying out in the big house.
